Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
At school, Tang Beibei, who had just finished class, still didnât know she was being followed.
Suddenly, she heard her phone vibrate. She unlocked it and saw that it was her husband.
The corners of her lips curled up. Her sweet smile was sweeter than the candy she ate.
She picked up her phone and went outside to answer the call. Then, she heard her husband ask, âBayberry is on the market now. Do you want to eat it?â
âIs it sour?â
âIt should be a bit sour. Iâll give the sour ones to Ruan Qi and leave the sweet ones for you.â
The manâs voice was gentle and filled with affection.
Tang Beibei thought about how Ruan Qi said she wanted to eat something sour yesterday. Song Zhou must have gone to find something to eat.
âI want to eat.â
âWhen will your training end tonight?â
During this period, she had been very busy every day. She practiced dancing until midnight.
âIâm doing my homework to look up some information. After Iâm done with my homework, Iâll go to the dance studio. Iâm going to practice vocal music today. Hubby, the teacher said that I sing well. Wait for me to sing for you.â
âAlright.â
Tang Beibei counted the time. âHubby, you should pick me up at seven. Itâs boring if you come early.â
âIâll listen to you.â
Thus, he worked overtime until six oâclock.
âHubby, Iâll go do my homework now.â
âOkay.â
Jiang Jingchen thought that she would hang up immediately, but he heard the woman say with a smile, âHubby, I love you.â
âObedient Beibei.â
âDu du du duâ¦â
This woman hung up the phone shyly.
Jiang Jingchen was in a good mood. He looked at the bayberries that Song Zhou brought over and tasted one. His brows were tightly knitted.
âSo sour!â
Song Zhou coughed lightly. âYoung Master, the red and black ones are sweet. These fresh ones are bright red and might be a little sour. Try again.â
Jiang Jingchen looked at him doubtfully, picked a black one, and put it in his mouth.
âYoung Master, how does it taste?â
âPick out the sour ones and give them to your wife. Leave the rest for my wife.â
Song Zhou was stunned. He was the one who bought it. Why did he have to give all the sweet ones to Jiang Jingchenâs wife?
He gloomily went to get the bag and started picking the bayberries in the office.
Suddenly, the phone rang. Jiang Jingchen picked it up. It was Wen Sang.
âBrother Jingchen, do you want to have dinner together?â
Song Zhou heard a womanâs voice, but it was not Tang Beibeiâs. He immediately looked at him.
He had promised his wife that he would keep an eye on his young master so that he wouldnât be seduced by another woman.
Jiang Jingchen said, âSorry, I have an appointment.â
âIs it with your wife?â
âYes.â
âThen letâs go together. I still want to talk to you about work.â
Previously, he had cooperated with the Wen Corporation and set the Jiang Corporation tp, causing Jiang Xing to be in danger.
Now that he was in charge of the Jiang Corporation, he wanted to change the name of the corporation. He needed to seek some strong cooperation if he wanted to run it well.
The Wen Corporation was a good choice.
However, he was still considering it.
Working with the Wen Corporation had its pros and cons. Besides, his wife did not like him to be too close to Wen Sang.
âSorry, my wife is still in training. Iâll just eat a little for dinner. Sheâs very busy and doesnât have time to go out.â
Wen Sang was a little disappointed. âBrother Jingchen, letâs meet at noon then. You donât have to accompany your wife at noon, right? I want to help you.â
Jiang Jingchen said politely, âIâm quite busy now. Thank you for your love, Miss Wen. Iâll hang up now.â
Without waiting for Wen Sang to speak, he hung up the phone and rubbed his eyebrows. He wanted to block her again.
He could understand what Wen Sang meant to him.
He had also told her clearly that he was married and that they couldnât be together. However, Wen Sang still seemed unwilling to accept it.
He did not like to be entangled with others.
If she wanted to talk about work, she could come to the office and negotiate in public instead of talking to him during private meal time.
âHow are the preparations for the name change going?â Jiang Jingchen asked.
âItâs already been registered. The trademark hasnât changed. The logo has also been printed. The new product will be under a new name.â
The Jiang Corporation was an old brand that had been around for more than ten years. A sudden name change would indeed affect the company.
Therefore, with the approval of the higher-ups, they took a series of measures to subtly let this name enter the ears of the customers and make them slowly accept it.
The Jiang Corporation was renamed Bei Yi International.
Jiang Jingchen looked at the list of companies under the Jiang Group. He crossed out two and threw the document that he found problematic to Song Zhou.
âFor such a problem to occur, it seems that their attitude towards work is not rigorous. Merge these two departments and list them under the assessment system. Whoever doesnât complete the assessment will get lost.â
Song Zhou heard the seriousness in his voice and knew that this was a serious matter. He did not dare to slack off and immediately took the documents out.
When he walked out of the office, he saw Jiang Xingâs former assistant talking to someone from the secretary department. He paused for a few steps.
Assistant Wang was very calm and even greeted Song Zhou with a smile.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
âHello, Assistant Song.â
Song Zhou thought to himself, âSeeing you here, I have a bad feeling.â
However, he still smiled politely. âAssistant Wang, since youâre free, why donât you go to the marketing department? Theyâre short of people.â
âIf this is the CEOâs transfer, I accept it.â
âYou can ask the CEO. The office door is open.â
Assistant Wang followed his finger to the room and looked at the half-open office. The corners of his mouth twitched and he went to the office.
âHi, Eldest Young Master.â
Jiang Jingchen responded politely.
âCall me CEO. Thereâs no young master here, only Jiang Jingchen.â
Assistant Wang nodded respectfully. âCEO, you want me to go to the marketing department, right?â
âYou can choose to go or stay in the secretary department.â
Assistant Wang was a little confused. âCEO, why are you so ruthless to the former CEO? He is your father.â
âSo?â
Assistant Wang coughed lightly. âIâm just curious. I want to hear your thoughts.â
âWhy should I be responsible for your curiosity?â
ââ¦â Assistant Wang choked.
Jiang Jingchen continued to read the document. After turning a page, he said, âYou used to lead the secretary department. You should know better than me about the situation of everyone in the department. Now the department is slacking off. What do you think?â
âWei⦠Remind them that if they make a mistake, their money will be deducted?â
Jiang Jingchen looked up at him. He closed the document that hadnât been signed and threw it directly to him.
âLet the person who wrote the document check for the mistakes. Inform the secretary department to hold a meeting in half an hour. If anyone doesnât show up, the person will be fired!â
Assistant Wang did not manage to catch the document. It fell to the ground with a thud.
He was sure that the people outside had heard the commotion inside.
He was deliberately making an example out of him to warn the people in the secretary department.
The people in the secretaryâs department were all led by him step by step. If he were to leave, it was inevitable that everyone would have some emotions. With emotions, they would slack off in their work.
He looked up at Jiang Jingchen. This cold-faced man was even more ruthless than Jiang Xing.
He took the document out and handed it to the people in the secretary department. He told them to be careful. If they made mistakes again in the future, he would not be able to protect them.
âAssistant Wang, we canât bear to leave you.. Can we discuss with the CEO so that you wonât leave? Or how about we all go with you? Anyway, I donât want to serve Jiang Jingchen, this trash!â
